Baz2236 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hi my 90 has developed a strange fault much like me where is does not want to start on cold mornings. In the morning if I try and turn it over I get nothing from the starter not even a click. All the dash lights are on I can use the glow plugs but on crank dead. If I try and start it again at lunch time or afternoon it will turn over and start straight away. Once it is started it will be fine fore the rest of the day. It just had a new battery and earths sorted out. Also the starter relay replaced. I have been playing in some deep water lately so that maybe causing issues but has anyone got any ideas before I start removing the starter.

Tanuki Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 If you have been wading recently you could have got wter in the starter motor: either the rotor is rusting to the casing, or there is corrosion thats causing the brushes to stick or something. Sounds like you ned to pull the starter and do a bench stripdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajh Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Check your ground, a cold connection is loose compared to a warm one and they need attention every year to keep the contact good and clean. Otherwise the above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
